If you loved someone would their snoring break up the relationship?

I'm in love with the most wonderful man in the world and want to spend my life with this beautiful man, the thing is he snore's really bad, enough that I have to go sleep in the car. and not getting enough sleep makes my really in a bad mood. I get gid of people in my life that allow's me to be in a bad mood, but I don't want to get rid of this man this is not his fault to a fault he is a little overweight for his size. What do I do? I'm a very light sleeper and don't think I should n't have to use earplugs to fall asleep.

of course not. I loved him whoever he is. If I chose to stay with him forever, then I'll stick to my vows.

I feel your misery. My husband isn't overweight, but he sure can snore! He sounds like a sick bull or something. It hasn't gotten so bad that I have had to sleep out in my car yet, but I have had to sleep in another room at the other end of the house. Like you, I am a very light sleeper. I have been married for 8 years, so I think we will be just fine. I don't see us getting divorced over snoring. Have you tried those breath right strips? Have you checked into any other remedies for snoring? I can usually get my husband to switch positions and he will stop snoring. I can also just lightly touch his chest and that makes the snoring subside. I have health conditions that make it difficult for me to sleep. I have a prescription for sleeping pills. If you are extremely sleep deprived, you may want to seek medical advice for yourself before it begins to really hurt your health.

My partner snores loud enough to rattle with windows but I love him and put up with it. There are ways to make it easier to live with, I generally roll him onto his side and he stops. In any relationship, it's compromise and understanding that matters, so check out some of the other ideas to prevent him snoring

Maybe there is a compromise you two can come to. Does he snore no matter what position he is in? My husband snores too but if I roll him on his side he usually stops. He thankfully isn't so loud I have to sleep in the car. Has he tried any of the products they sell to help cure snoring? Like the breath right strips and things like that? If not maybe try those and you try some ear plugs lol. Or maybe some headphones playing music? If that doesn't work maybe see a doctor. His weight certainly could have something to do with it. Is he willing to diet and get in shape to see if that helps? I hope you are able to find a solution.
